The War Against Drakath
Hey guys! Sorry about the long update...anyways, in this chapter, Masamune34 and Blackmagic13 will explore the Cornelius Ruins...and hopefully find the last piece of the Runix Cube!
Chapter 16: The Cornelius Ruins
We had entered the Cornelius Ruins, and found ourselves face to face with several gargoyles.
They were everywhere...Masamune34 and I realized we had our work cut out...not like I couldn't take care of some wimpy gargoyles...we've faced worse than that...
They seemed to be searching for the Runix Cube, just like the various monsters we found earlier were. We wondered what would happen if Escherion ever got his hands on it...
Probably something really evil would happen if he did...
Anyways we saw a green little Moglin, like he had been exposed to radioactivity or something.
His name was Anise...which sounded oddly feminine, now that I think of it. He wanted us to get rid of the gargoyles.
Well, Masamune34 and I took care of that pretty well. It was a good thing the gargoyles couldn't turn us into statues by biting us, because that happened to us sometimes.
Not to mention we got clawed and stomped on too...
That wasn't a lot of fun. Luckily, we were able to pull off the task quickly. Anise sent us to look around the ruins to see if we could find anything interesting...
Soon enough, we did find something that took our fancy. It was a giant stone golem!
That was missing an arm. I wonder where it went? Did it fall off or something?
We found ourselves fighting the one-armed golem. I suppose it was a good thing it was missing an arm...otherwise it might have tried to strangled us. And I had no idea how we could get out of that situation if it did that, seeing though its arm was made of rock...
We worked together to make the golem fall to the ground. Of course, I probably could have done it myself if I had used a spell or something...
Afterwards, Anise told us we weren't quite done here, he said to look carefully at the painting.
We looked at it but we didn't find anything interesting...at first we thought it was a waste of our time.
But eventually we did find something interesting...behind the painting was the third and last piece of the Runix Cube!
We also found some interesting trinkets, such as a Magic Mirror, but I suppose that's not as interesting...
Afterwards, we went back to Renn and Zio. "Good work." Renn and Zio said to us. Now we just had to reassemble the cube...
That wasn't easy...but eventually we figured that out.
Renn and Zio told us that we still had to sneak into Escherion's Tower. We had no idea how to do that, but the two of them came up with a brilliant idea...disguising ourselves as a pizza delivery boy and a pizza delivery girl.
I had to resist not eating the pizza, but other than that things went well. The cyclops were big, but they were stupid, and therefore gullible.
We knew that Escherion wouldn't let us reach his room without a fight, and prepared ourselves accordingly...
In the next chapter, Escherion will awaken the 1st Chaos Beast...
Dun dun dun..
See ya! Please R&R!
